What chips do Sanlink 3 N1 and T1 use, and what is the functional difference between them?<p>This forum is borken - SANLink 3 doesn't have its own category yet.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>What <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">ethernet chips</span></strong> do Sanlink 3 N1 and T1 use?<br><br>This information is <span style="text-decoration: underline;">absolutely&nbsp;critical for making a buying</span> decision, and it's not in the product specification. Also the knowledge base page only has the pages&nbsp;https://kb.promise.com/thread/what-is-the-os-version-compatible-for-sanlink3-t1-and-n1/ and&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>And, is there any notable functional difference between them, difference in speed, connectors?<br><br>Or is N1 just smaller&nbsp;and hence better.<br><br>The product specs at&nbsp;https://www.promise.com/Products/SANLink/SANLink3-N1/ and https://www.promise.com/Products/SANLink/SANLink3-T1&nbsp;respectively look exactly the same, they reveal no difference at all.<br><br>This&nbsp;clarification is also needed for making a buying decision.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>(N1 has product code name&nbsp;<span style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">SL3N1GL .)</span><br><br>Please clarify ASAP, thanks!</p>2018-05-21T18:12:32.9200000https://forum.promise.com/thread/what-chips-do-sanlink-3-n1-and-t1-use-and-what-is-the-functional-difference-between-them/

SanLink 3 T1 to NAS connection<p>Hi,</p>
<p>i want to connect my MacBook to my QNAP NAS using 10GBit.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The NAS has a SFP+ 10 GBit port. My idea is to connect the MacBook using SanLink T1 to the SFP+ port of the NAS. Cable length is about 15-20 m. I need a recommendation which cable/ connector combination would be used in this setting.&nbsp;</p>

SanLink2 and SanLink3 speed issues in OSX 10.12<p>Hi there!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>We installed 2 new Editing Suites in our Company. Two Imacs, one from 2015 and a brand new one from 2017.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The one from 2015 has a SanLink2 TB2 10g Box installed.</p>
<p>The other one a SanLink3 via TB3.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Both Imacs are running 10.12 Sierra.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>We tested all our Connections and all available Drivers leading to the Conclusion that we only achieve maximum bandwith via IMacs running El Capitan.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Is this a driver Problem in Sierra?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Thanks in advance.</p>

can't have 10G speed in Windows10.<p>Hi all,</p>
<p>I have a SANLIN3-T1 NBaseT adapter. I tried to perform 10G/bps throughput test, using iperf3&nbsp;between Linux and windows. A SANLINK3 is connected windows but windows showed only 6.5Gbps.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Is there any recommended configuration for reaching 10Gbps throughput in Windows?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>2017-11-16T01:20:21.0870000https://forum.promise.com/thread/can-t-have-10g-speed-in-windows10/
Fibre and Copper in one adapter?<p>Hi</p>
<p>I am new to networking so forgive me for these simple questions. I and am interested in connecting a Thunderbolt host computer to a 10GBe interface storage. I have one storage that is copper interfaced (RJ-45) and a second storage is Fibre interfaced.</p>
<p>Is it possible to add one copper and one fibre transceiver to a Sanlink2 SFP+ adapter (or an alternative option), or would I need two separate adapters, one copper / one fibre? I would not be connecting both storages at the same time.</p>
<p>Or does the card just not work that way? I noticed in the SFP+ compatibilty there were only fibre transceivers so Im guessing it is only one or the other? Do any PCIE cards allow for both interfaces?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Thanks a lot for your help!</p>

Is the SANLink3 T1 Compatible with Thunderbolt 2 Macs??<p>Owner of a <strong>Pegasus2 R4</strong> connected to a <strong>Mac mini (Late 2014) </strong>via&nbsp;Thunderbolt 2. Ran the latest firmware / software updates.</p>
<p>Attempting to connect&nbsp;the <strong>SANLink3 T1</strong> using the <strong>Apple Thunderbolt 2 to 3 Adapter</strong>. &nbsp;Unfortunately the <strong>Mac mini (Late 2014) with Thunderbolt 2</strong> does not detect the SANLink3 T1.</p>
<p>To verify the SANLink3 T1 is good, I have tested it&nbsp;on MacBook Pro 15-inch (2017) model and it works.</p>
<p>Is the <strong>SANLink3 T1</strong>&nbsp;compatible with <strong>Macs with Thunderbolt 2 Ports</strong>?</p>
<p>The diagram in the article seems to suggest its possible</p>
